Come away with me in the night
Come away with me
And I will write you a song
Come away with me on a bus
Come away where they can't tempt us
With their lies
And I wanna walk with you
On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high
So won't you try to come
Come away with me and we'll kiss
On a mountain top
Come away with me
And I'll never stop loving you
I wanna wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night
Come away with me

| coachc (Madison, WI) | Posted: Mar 13, 2013 - 06:46 This is still sweet and a fine performance. But I agree with many that she hasn't fulfilled the promise of this record. |

Still, I Thank TFSM I saw the divot where the landmine was placed.) | Posted: Jan 09, 2013 - 13:50 May be her most popular work, but not her best, much of which is Very good. She is Ravi Shankar's daughter—who knew? (well maybe others did as I didn't scroll back all the way) |

| nook (gone) | Posted: Aug 13, 2012 - 06:36 Nora, Nora, Nora. You are the cool salve on a feverish day. Thank you for such beautiful music, regardless of the haters and headbangers, a smooth jazz tune is almost always appropriate... |
| Thin_Air | Posted: May 02, 2012 - 10:27 I reckon she sings a good lullaby and at the risk of being predictable - yes I would love to do a practical - in the interest of scientifc advance of course. |

Sincerely, Uncle Hud Sorry, Uncle Cracker - Miss Nora could not wait for you to call. WE made another descision instead - but had a spliff'n'drink on you!
PS: Woman really wait to be called, where your trailor is parked? |

Sorry you hate Norah Jones. Maybe you could check out "El Madmo," one of her alter-ego bands. FUN stuff - you'd probably love it. I know I do...  BTW: My parents would have LOVED Norah Jones's music - smooth, silky, melodic, and right on key. I'd give just about anything to be able to play her music for them and watch their expressions. I totally agree with you. This is a 9 in my book. The cruelty of people makes me sick. |

| sirdroseph (Yes) | Posted: Oct 01, 2011 - 13:06 I am not usually a fan of this type of music, but this song has a nice little melody, not bad. |

| Mita (Santa Fe, NM) | Posted: Jul 30, 2011 - 17:50 BORING Norah Jones. |
| Rebis (Chicago) | Posted: Jun 29, 2011 - 08:12 Oh RP. You lose me every time you play snoozy Norah Jones. (Seriously. That's when I navigate away.) |
| huebdoo (San Fran) | Posted: Dec 22, 2010 - 10:49 When it first came out this record was simply amazing to listen to - however like many things that have been hyped a little too much by the record executives; Norah, Cowboy Junkies and Natalie Merchant seem to fall into the same space for me. I can enjoy it still - but only in minute doses, as more than anything the songs remind me of years past, love and relationships ... maybe the works have become more than pieces of music - but associations of an event and hence its harder for me to just "enjoy" the songs for what they are. Sorry Norah - you get very little air time with me now - your tucked away with the Junkies and Tigerlily. |

| WayUpNorth (Windswept Exile) | Posted: Dec 22, 2010 - 10:44 I was not a fan of the song until I was at a wedding and it was played ... awesome slow dance song with someone you love.  |

| crushedvelvet | Posted: Jan 09, 2009 - 02:13 Right. Who's paying for the flights & accommodation? Hippiechick  , take solace in the following: Norah Jones is BORING, right ?? I mean, they play her CONSTANTLY in my local wholefoods store - as if you've got to be a jazz-listening, pastel-colour-wearing anaemic individual in order to eat wholefoods? Man, they stress me out with their bad music. xx, ciao baby. |

| Tim_in_N_FL (Florida) | Posted: Dec 08, 2008 - 11:28 This entire CD sounds GREAT on the BIG electrostatic speakers I've borrowed from a friend. What wide sound stage. If you close your eyes you can almost visualize the band in the room. Great stuff... |
| Zweiblumen (Boston, MA [2,606 miles ENE of Paradise, CA]) | Posted: Oct 22, 2008 - 10:52 Something wrong with this mpeg, it sounds like. Pops here and there are making it hard to listen to. Good song, though. |
| Kittee (NC- Dreaming of the Mountains) | Posted: Oct 06, 2008 - 08:23 Makes me want to sing aloud at my desk...but my co-workers may not appreciate my rendition.  |
| philinnz (Wellington, New Zealand) | Posted: Sep 20, 2008 - 19:14 I got sick of it when it first came out because of the thrashing it got on the radio, but it is nice hearing again after an absense (or should that be absinthe?) |

but don't get me wrong, she is a great artist that has some unfavorable side effects on an individual like me  It would be nice if she'd pick up the tempo from time to time. |
